The SPE Methane Emissions Management Technical Section is now the SPE Methane Technical Section (MTS).
Methane hasn’t gotten simpler—it has gotten more urgent, more technical, and more cross-disciplinary. Our updated name reflects what our members already do every day—bring together the full methane ecosystem, end-to-end.
Detection → Quantification → Verification → Response → Abatement
Technology, data, operations, and assurance—across upstream, midstream, and beyond.
A home for practitioners working on remote sensing technologies (sensors, satellites, aircraft, LIDAR), inventories, measurement uncertainty, standards, reporting, and performance improvement.
This is not a cosmetic change. It is a signal: Methane is a technical discipline, and it deserves a focused community that is rigorous, practical, and solutions oriented. SPE is building a stronger member experience with more value, more content, and more conversation. If methane is part of your job, or your curiosity, this is your community.
The MTS also now falls under the Health, Safety, Environment, and Sustainability (HSES) SPE discipline and community to align with our new focus. Learn more about the HSES discipline.
